Glad we traded for this kid before the award was handed out, would’ve jumped his value.
Kids huge, is showing great promise in a defensive role, and is young enough to be a factor for the entire contention window of 5-6 years (if he can reach that point in development). I like this move more and more as I learn more about Webber. Good pick up Brad!
*Edit – did some Googling and Hockey East gives out this award to the best defensive defenseman in the Eastern Conference of the NCAA (Boston College, Boston University, UConn, Maine, Massachusetts, UMass Lowell, Merrimack, New Hampshire, North Eastern, Providence, Vermont). Some pretty solid programs, with talented players, in Hockey East to be measured against.
Surely Treliving didn’t make this trade without knowing if Cade would sign, right?
Previous winners include Manson, Braun, Dumoulin, Desharnais, Santini, etc (also includes guys I’ve never heard of).
